'''Shy Guy Says''' is a 4-Player [[minigame]] in ''[[Mario Party]]'', ''[[Mario Party 2]]'', ''[[Mario Party: The Top 100]]'', and ''[[Mario Party Superstars]]''. It is also the third and final section of the Showdown minigame [[Mario's Three-peat]] in ''[[Super Mario Party Jamboree]]''. Shy Guy Says is a parody of the game {{wp|Simon Says}}.

==Overview==
[[File:SMPJ Mario Threepeat Shy Guy Says.png|thumb|left|Shy Guy Says, as a part of [[Mario's Three-peat]], in ''Super Mario Party Jamboree'']]
In ''Mario Party'', ''Mario Party: The Top 100'', and ''Mario Party Superstars'', a [[Shy Guy]] appears on a boat, and the players are in barrels connected by rope to the boat; in ''Mario Party 2'' and ''Super Mario Party Jamboree'', a Shy Guy stands on a rainbow and a platform, respectively, with a bow and a quiver, with the players being attached to balloons. The Shy Guy in ''Super Mario Party Jamboree'' is yellow because the red Shy Guy is playable.

Shy Guy raises either a white or a red flag, and players have to copy him. Each of the Shy Guy's flags shows the button used to raise that flag: {{button|n64|A}} in ''Mario Party'' and ''Mario Party 2'' or {{button|3ds|r}}/{{button|switch|r}} in ''Mario Party: The Top 100'', ''Mario Party Superstars'', and ''Super Mario Party Jamboree'' for white; and {{button|n64|B}} in ''Mario Party'' and ''Mario Party 2'' or {{button|3ds|l}}/{{button|switch|L}} in ''Mario Party: The Top 100'', ''Mario Party Superstars'', and ''Super Mario Party Jamboree'' for red. If a player either raises the incorrect flag or none, the Shy Guy eliminates them from the minigame by cutting their rope with a sword in ''Mario Party'', ''Mario Party: The Top 100'', and ''Mario Party Superstars'', or by popping their balloon by using a bow in ''Mario Party 2'' and ''Super Mario Party Jamboree''. The Shy Guy has a tactic in ''Mario Party'' and ''Mario Party 2'' of sometimes raising two flags at once before putting one of them away early, while in ''Mario Party: The Top 100'', the Shy Guy sometimes takes out a flag and immediately puts it away. When raising two flags at once, the Shy Guy can also raise a flag after lowering it and lower the other one. Both of these techniques reappear in ''Mario Party Superstars'' and ''Super Mario Party Jamboree''. The last remaining player wins the minigame.

A bypassing [[Lakitu]] appears in ''Mario Party 2'' at one point, and if a player does not raise a flag before it goes offscreen, the Shy Guy pops their balloon. The same timer is not in the ''Super Mario Party Jamboree'' version, preventing fakeouts from being relayed.

If at least two players remain long enough in the ''Mario Party Superstars'' version, a 30-second timer displays eventually. Once the timer reaches zero, all players still standing are declared winners, though in all games, a draw occurs when there are no players still standing whatsoever.

Shy Guy Says can be purchased from the [[Mini-Game House]] in ''Mario Party'' for 250 [[coin]]s when it becomes available, or from [[Woody]] in ''Mario Party 2'' for 50 coins.

==Notes==
*An alternate texture for the Shy Guy pirate is present in ''Mario Party''{{'}}s files but went [[List of Mario Party pre-release and unused content|unused]].<ref>{{cite|language=en|url=tcrf.net/Mario_Party|title=''Mario Party''|publisher=The Cutting Room Floor|accessdate=August 20, 2018}}</ref>
*In ''Mario Party'', ''Mario Party Superstars'', and ''Super Mario Party Jamboree'', the music speeds up as the minigame progresses, which also occurs in [[Hexagon Heat]] in ''Mario Party 2''.
*In ''Mario Party 2'', [[Luigi]]'s flags and Yoshi's red flag are rendered improperly, making them not appear to be fully attached to the poles.
*Shy Guys in ''[[Mario & Luigi: Brothership]]'' have an attack based on this minigame, where they show a flag with either an M or L on it, and the corresponding Mario Bro. has to [[jump]] to avoid having a bomb dropped on him. The Shy Guy can also not show a flag at all, requiring the player to do nothing.
